Making a Difference
The opportunities for transformation and liberation have never been greater than they are right now on the planet. All of you reading this have been born at this particular time to bring in the solutions rather than to reiterate the problems. What should be obvious to you is that you are the ones who have come to birth the new time, and in doing so, to be reborn yourselves.
The birth is a birth of consciousness, the arising of your capacity to see with your inner senses. To see not only with your eyes, but with a flow of pure consciousness. It is like you are asking yourself to finally see through the very eyes of Oneness. In fact it is the only thing that can bring about the full transformation of consciousness of our precious planet and all beings that call her home. Since you are part of the creative force that brought forth this beautiful Earth, you must be a necessary part that is transforming and healing her. You are doing this with the creative power of love. Or have you forgotten?
And you see the horror of the past and the confusion of the present in the minds and emotions of humankind and you desire, most profoundly, to do something about it. You see the pain and suffering still playing itself out and you want to make a difference.
But I tell you that the old ways of trying to fix others to change them or the circumstances in which they live; to mend broken hearts and broken lives - will not work. In the new paradigm trying to mend the world is fruitless. The world does not need mending. It is a perfect expression of itself, where it has been and where it is going. Other people do not need mending for they are a most beautiful expression of their own intent. All that is required is your recognition that you are a perfect expression of Divine Creation. All your experiences have led you unfailingly to where you are now. It is now time to relax and fully enjoy all you are now, laying aside all judgements, and allowing love and enjoyment of your life to be your watchword.
Can you imagine, accept and take ownership for all that you are. Can you not see that in doing so that is what transforms reality, that is your legacy ,that you bless everyone wherever you go by your very presence. That is the Holy touch of you. That is the healer and the transformer of all conditions. You being fully yourself, at home with you and at Home on Earth changes everything for everyone. Why do you find this so hard to accept?
As you embody love, you open the birth canal for love to enter the collective experience. Do you not remember that you took birth into the physical form for this very reason? None of us is separate from this holy process? Who among you claims the right to judge those your ego may deem as less than holy? None.
What you have to do is to be more willing to take responsibility for what the collective You have brought forth upon the planet. What we all brought forth is patriarchal rule and we have all experienced how it does not allow our freedom or our truth. Then, in the loving, grateful wisdom that is our true collective nature, we can now create something else: a shared reality that is wholesome, supportive, clean and pure. A reality that will generate life energy rather than a death force.
What I am saying is that you are the solution to all the problems that you see around you whether they be those of the planet or other people. The liberation for them is the liberation of you. You cannot fight, argue, coerce, or struggle your way to liberation. You can only realise it.
And what is this illusive liberation that so many spiritual teachers have taught about? When you are around someone who has attained spiritual liberation it is palpable to your deeper senses.
Just what have they become freed from? They are free from the tyranny of the ego with its continual complaining, demanding, and overt manipulation. But we could also say that the freedom gained is from the domination of the need for survival or the destructive influences of those trapped in a fight for survival.
What would it be like to wake each morning with a mind space that is completely at peace with itself? Your world would be the world, and you would note that its being just as it is has nothing to do with who you are or how you might choose to live on any given day. The physical beauty or the apparent nature of everything in the world would inspire you as you search out the true nature of everything. Life would quite likely be very different to that which you experience now. Your liberated heart would be full of the continually arising beauty that is trying to reveal itself in every moment. Having cut through illusion in your own mind and life, you would witness others breaking the bondage of their own particular illusions, and you would take an inexpressible joy in being so fortunate as to witness the miracle of consciousness expanding. The petty complaints about your own life will have been dissolved in to a sea of gratitude for the profound wonder of life in all its many levels, through which consciousness expresses and partakes of itself. You would savour the precious nature of physical form, and you would celebrate the dance of emptiness and karma in all its manifestations. You would allow for the presence of illusion at every turn and marvel at its ability to replicate itself again and again, generation after generation. You would also be aware of and grateful for the many opportunities that arise for cutting through the illusions and delusions that afflict all beings with whom you share this planet. You would be saddened by the many opportunities missed by most people. You would see how hard they strive to overcome limiting patterns but also see how they march headlong into them, being both aware that change is possible while also believing that the change is quite impossible for them. You would hold this paradox and many others in your heart as a precious and lovely quality to the human condition.
You would want to see the eradication of pain and suffering from all levels of consciousness , and you would feel a compelling urge to change everything that lay within your power to change.
However, you would also see that to do this, it would be necessary to change the way others perceive their world and relate to it. This, you would note, is impossible, and you would simply love them all the more for their confused attempts to master their own karma. You would not only see the inner place where they live, you would see just how they prevent themselves from living and being in any other mind state. There are always reasons why people are where they are in life, and you would realise that there is wisdom in the way their own karma is playing out, even if it is painful for them. With that realisation you would be able to see the perfection of that karma, and a profound respect would arise for the creative process that brought it forth.
This is the point of compassion and it comes about through embracing and loving totally your own journey.
